Practical numbers in Lucas sequences |
||
| Abstract: | AbstractA practical number is a positive integer n such that all the positive integers m ≤ n can be written as a sum of distinct divisors of n. Let (un)n≥0 be the Lucas sequence satisfying u0 = 0, u1 = 1, and un+2 = aun+1 + bun for all integers n ≥ 0, where a and b are fixed nonzero integers. Assume a(b + 1) even and a2 + 4b > 0. Also, let  | |
